Adobe Commerce Versioning: Secure Your Store and Stay Ahead

blog-image

Running an outdated version of Adobe Commerce could cost your business more than you think. If you’re still on 2.4.4, note that support ends on April 24, 2025. After that, you’ll no longer receive essential security patches or performance updates, leaving your business vulnerable.

Worse yet, if you’re on 2.4.0 - 2.4.3, you’re already operating without these critical updates.

At Deploi, we know that security, compliance, and performance aren’t just technical issues—they’re foundational to your success.

Why Upgrading Matters

Security Risks

  • Older versions don’t get security patches, increasing the risk of data breaches.
  • Breaches could result in fines, loss of customer trust, and a damaged brand.
  • 83% of security incidents happen on outdated software.

PCI Compliance

  • You need to be on a supported version to remain PCI compliant.
  • Non-compliance could result in penalties or the inability to process payments.

Performance Enhancements

  • Each update includes performance improvements that reduce page load times.
  • Faster sites lead to better SEO rankings and higher conversion rates. A delay of just one second in page load time can reduce conversions by 4.4%.

Technical Debt

  • The longer you wait, the harder and more expensive it becomes to upgrade.
  • Regular updates make the process smoother and prevent costly catch-up efforts later.

Innovation

  • Upgrading allows you to leverage the latest features, giving your store a competitive edge.
